aoists have killed three senior members of a civil militia movement who they had abducted last week from a government-run relief camp in Chhattisgarh, police said on Wednesday.
The dead men were members of the Salwa Judum, a government-backed movement meant to counter the Maoists.
Their bodies were found in a forested part of the southern Dantewada district, 515 km south of Raipur, with multiple knife wounds on their necks.
"We found three dead bodies lying on a road in Dantewada district late last night," a senior police officer told Reuters by telephone. "The bodies were identified on Wednesday as senior cadres of the Salwa Judum movement."
Around 50,000 people have left their homes to live in relief camps run by the Salwa Judum in southern Chhattisgarh, the worst affected state by the Maoist insurgency.
Last month, rebels carried out one of their deadliest attacks in four decades of insurgency when they attacked a police base in Chhattisgarh and killed 55 policemen.

This is fantastic news. The landlords' goons should be killed wherever encountered.
